Re: My 1941 Ford 1/2 ton pickup restoration
Suggest removing those nice shiney new grease zerts at the rear axel bearings and replacing with a plug before someone accidently pumps the brake drum full of grease.

Re: My 1941 Ford 1/2 ton pickup restoration
No, Just a friendly reminder. It has been done in the past by unknowing individuals who upon seeing a grease zert decide it must be greased. This location was not one of Ford's better idea's. You have a great start to a real fine looking truck. Very good quality workmanship.
